Monster Worldwide : Cramer recommended the stock earlier this year as a turnaround and potential takeover story. Neither has happened yet and, for that, he apologized. Don’t lose sight, though. He still thinks Monster is ripe for a buyout.

Genco Shipping : Cramer is willing to endorse this dry-bulk shipper, but he admits that the group was much harder to gauge than he anticipated.

Boston Scientific : Instead, pick up St. Jude , Cramer said.

Titanium Metals : Cramer thinks that cycle is over. He would rather own Freeport-McMoRan for its exposure to both copper and gold.

Schlumberger : Cramer’s a fan of SLB, but likes Transocean better on its pullback.
